What Does This Service Provide?
This service is provided to clarify how an idea, a need, or an existing way of working should be approached with software, what level of solution is appropriate to start with, and where to start.
The goal is not to develop software; the goal is to prevent starting software development with the wrong scope, wrong order, or wrong expectations.
Who Is It Suitable For?
This service is a good starting point if:
- You are looking for a clear answer to “How should we approach this with software?”
- You want to see risks and the right starting point before beginning development
- You want to avoid the cost of projects that start with the wrong scope
This service may not be suitable for you if:
- You expect development instead of analysis
- You request a fixed price before the scope is clarified
- You do not want to allocate time for decision-making
